I don’t want a dark and twisted batman that watches Catwoman change through her window.

I want a bat credit card and ice puns.

The whole plot is that robin is scared of getting bracers. The joker taunts him with those fake chittering walking teeth.

    Batman Returns got the balance absolutely right between treating the situation seriously while also keeping some of the more campy and cartoon elements.

    “No more realistic super heroes,” he says! 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

    To steal from paraphrase George Carlin, “no more jumbo shrimp! No more hot-water heaters!”

    I sympathize with this sentiment, but Batman is always used as an example and I don’t understand why. The darker movies are much closer in style to the comics (I’m thinking Year One, Long Halloween, etc.). Is there something I’m missing or are people just frustrated because they have nostalgia for the campy 20th century film adaptations?
